Though he will admit he is a little bias, C.J. Spiller believes Clemson’s Travis Etienne is the best running back in the 2021 NFL Draft.
If anyone should know what Etienne is capable of, it is Spiller. He has had a front row seat the last three years, including last year as a graduate assistant at Clemson.
Spiller watched firsthand as Etienne broke all of his own Clemson records and then became the ACC’s all-time rushing, scoring and touchdown leader.
“I think Travis Etienne is going to transition to the NFL. I don’t want to say easy, but I don’t think it will be overbearing for him,” Clemson’s new running backs coach said.
